The Model Photo Shoot - not for banger selection

Just wanted to share a few of these with you, dudes. I edited 65 images for Ivana to use on her website. She's the brown haired girl in a few of these shots. And how crazy is that red haired girl? She moved to NY from Serbia the day before this shoot.
KS - very cool.  nice work SB.

my exploring shots

KS - there's a lot here.  You think I have 5 show bangers?  I know this is probably way too many and most aren't bangers but I'm curious if you guys like and of the ones I'm not as into.  

SB - Here's what I learned in looking at these, my favorites are definitely the shots that lead your eye from front to back, which happens very obviously in the long, warehouse shots. They occupy more of the photo with good material. I think you easily have a 4 set of those, that I also think would look great grouped together on a wall. Probably not high mom-potential, but tons of hipster cred to be had with such pieces. Secondly and thirdly, I see potential for sets of close ups and wall-door situations, but fewer photos with each of those. See comments below.

AL - Amy's comments. See below.


SB - That hippy on the right ruined this one.
KS - Ha I remember when I first saw that I meant to crop you out but obviously forgot.

SB - I like how this one is backlit and the front is shadowed.
SB - Good close up series potential.


AL - Banger.
SB - best banger potential for close up series. Likely low mom cred, tho.
AL - Banger.















SB - I always liked this one, but not quite sure what series to fit it in. Good lighting.
SB - Banger. Feel those eyes move from front to back. That's textbook eye motion.
AL - Banger.
SB - Pretty sweet. Possible banger for eye-leader series.
AL - Banger.



AL - Possible banger.


SB - Cool, but don't know what series to fit it in.
AL - Definite banger.

SB - I call this a banger. Best part is the orange, well lit wall at the end. Lots of good texture. Lightroom could crop this to make it look completely straight on. Might be worth a try.
AL - Possible banger.
KS - I can straighten in aperture too.  I might have done that already with a different version of this pic. (or this is the straight one! ha)


KS - I've always kind of envisioned a series with ones like the next one - door with the wall.  As you can see I have a few different ones.  That said, people probably wouldn't want to buy them, maybe it'd be better for more of an art show where I wasn't selling stuff.
SB - This is my favorite door-wall shot.
SB - Another good door-wall shot. Good lighting and texture.
SB - Like it, but don't know what series to fit it in. Needs a bit of a crop to make that door more vertical.
AL - Banger.


SB - Would look good in the door-wall series.


AL - Thinks it's really interesting, though maybe too much for the average human eyeball.

SB - Decent door-wall potential.
SB - Good door-wall potential. Maybe a hair too dark.



AL - Banger.

AL - Banger.


SB - Banger. Good light at end. Perfect for the eye-leader series.


AL - Banger.
KS - hey the one below looks better than the one above, right?

SB - Banger. Eye-leader series. I like how clean the floor is and the light on the left columns and end.


SB - Pretty good door-wall series potential.
SB - Banger. This is on the cusp of the eye-leader series. Love that clean floor. Only difference here is that the eye-leader isn't straight down the middle, but hanging on a wall it might be nice to break up that monotony.
KS - This is very clearly edited, but i like the red and black of the pic.  plus it sort of makes it look like the stack is making the sky red.
